Doug and The Letter on Youtube

Here is something that might be interesting to some folks.

There was a meeting of the Los Angeles Neighborhood Council Congress that the L. A. City Attorney has given his opinion as being a private organization.

The group had a meeting scheduled and it also had on its agenda some discussion of Ponte Vista at San Pedro.

Wouldn't you know it, the folks at Ponte Vista needed to write a letter and have it read at the meeting stating their belief that Ponte Vista should not be discussed at a meeting of this private organization, it seems.

You know what? There is even a video that you can watch our own Doug Epperhart explain the situation and it even shows the poor fellow reading the letter.

You can view the video by going to You tube via the following link:

Below, according to Mr. Epperhart, is the letter that was read at the meeting.




So let me see if I get this straight.

A private organization decides to have a meeting. At that meeting there is an item placed on the agenda concerning Ponte Vista. A lawyer writes a letter to the private organization and others stating that they should remove from the private organization's agenda, discussion concerning the Ponte Vista development.

How am I doing so far?

It may certainly be true that the Los Angeles Neighborhood Council Congress has 40 current members. It also may be true that the 38 other members of the Congress have not convened to discuss any matters. The attorney wrote that the Los Angeles Neighborhood Council Congress is a private organization, according to an opinion by the City Attorney. Can anyone explain to me why anyone in the Bisno organization should seek to have agendas changed at meetings of private organizations?

It seems to me that there are some folks representing Mr. Bisno who wish to insert themselves into organizations where they probably don't belong.

Should from BDC Ponte Vista Partners, LLC have the right to come into other private organizations and insert their wishes on folks belonging to those private organizations, without being invited?

I think what we are witnessing here is that the folks at Bisno Development are now resorting to going all over the greater L.A. area in attempts to get their project developed. R Neighborhoods Are 1 is also going to other parts of the City to seek assistance and provide assistance to others concerning what is quickly becoming a movement towards slowing down the over development of the entire area.

I know Bob needs to be with like-minded developers, just like members of OUR community need to work with many others to try and get some control back to the people and slow down the rush to develop everywhere, 24/7.
